Tecumseh K146-28 Start Capacitor 270-324 MFD 165V

The Tecumseh K146-28 is a heavy-duty start capacitor designed for commercial refrigeration and HVAC compressor applications. This capacitor provides the high torque needed to start single-phase motors in demanding environments.

Key Specifications:

• Capacitance Range: 270-324 MFD (microfarads)
• Voltage Rating: 165V AC
• Type: Electrolytic start capacitor
• Designed for Tecumseh compressor systems
• Heavy-duty construction for commercial applications

Start capacitors are critical components that provide the initial electrical boost needed to start compressor motors. The K146-28 features a robust design that handles the high current demands during motor startup, then disconnects from the circuit once the motor reaches operating speed. This capacitor is engineered to withstand the temperature extremes and vibration common in refrigeration equipment.

Applications: Commercial refrigeration units, walk-in coolers and freezers, ice machines, and other equipment using Tecumseh compressors requiring this capacitance range.
